Indie Mini-Review: Lone Survivor

Hello, from today, every week I will try make mini-review a indie game talking a little about random indie games that I find everywhere. 🙂

Yesterday I was playing a really nice game in the Steam. Lone Survivor. And I will start with this Game. 🙂

It is a very interesting game, with a “simple” and retro visual.

The atmosphere is very reminiscent of the Silent Hill series, the amazing idea of apply it all to a great survivor, makes the player to start to worry about finding food and ammunition to stay alive.
Lone Survivor despite being a platform adventure, have a nice aspect of exploration, in very open scenario with diverse and amazing surprises that will surely please you.

Oh and the Music/Sound, is just Amazing and fills entirely the atmosphere of the game.

Wyl note: I believe that despite being a pixel art game, I recognize that pixelate a scenario and character may become more hard to work than a normal or stylized art.
